Alleged? You don't know if you got the right guy?

Due to strong defamation laws the media won’t be specific until the police speak up, or might even wait for a conviction

I don't think you know what "alleged" means.

I know what alleged means. And in this context, it means they either shot the guy who was stabbing people or shot someone else, meaning they don't know if it is or isn't the guy they were looking for.
